Chapter 6: Those Three Lines of Words
The entire room was in an uproar, and the trainees who had already taken their seats began to whisper to one another.
Having no company was understandable; after all, a few Individual Trainees had appeared earlier.
But a training duration of 0 days? That was absurd!
The little internet celebrity named Tong Shu who had just gone before him had a training duration of 30 days.
After receiving the invitation from the production team, he had hired a teacher for specialized practice, and the production team had also provided him with short-term training.
Trainee, trainee—if you have no training duration, what kind of trainee are you?
—"Starting Today, I'm a Trainee"?
You have to realize, more than half of the contestants have entered the venue now, and among them, the one with the longest training duration is as high as 6 years!
That is to say, someone has spent a full 6 years training and practicing at a company, yet has still not debuted as an Idol!
Some of the better-informed trainees began to pass information to those around them.
"I chatted with a staff member from the production team yesterday. They said it themselves: a colleague was pulled in at the last minute to make up the numbers, and that's him."
"Ah? Is it because of that previous audit..." This person's voice grew quieter and quieter, finally just mouthing the words.
Although 100 men had slept in the same hall last night, it was everyone's first time gathered together, and they really didn't have much new understanding of each other.
Even though it is said that "if you know yourself and know your enemy, you will never be defeated," Luo Mo was simply too much of a non-entity, and on top of that, he was just pulled in to make up the numbers, so everyone knew almost nothing about him.
"Look, the letter he has stuck on is F." Someone noticed the letter stuck to Luo Mo's name tag.
"By the way, what does his Motto mean?" Another trainee pointed at the personal information on the big screen.
The Motto was a segment the director team added on the fly this morning, requiring every contestant to write one, which would be recorded into the personal information on the big screen.
Director Ning Dan had the idea on the spur of the moment to reflect the trainees' drive and ambition, allowing the entire variety show to display a positive side in the beginning.
Some trainees' Mottos were of the diligent type, with vocabulary inside that was either about blood or sweat.
There were also many trainees whose Mottos were ambitious, hinting to the audience that they wanted to fight for a high position and please vote for them vigorously—very vigorously.
Yet this Luo Mo, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and black shorts, looking like a background character, had a Motto consisting of only a few words that left people a bit confused.
He wrote—【Do not worry that you have no friends on the road ahead】.
In this world, he was the only one who knew what the second half of this poem was.
Knowing it himself was enough.
Just like when Zhou Jielun released his first album, "JAY," back in the day, the promotional slogan only had one sentence.
"【Jielun, his ambition for music is so big you can't see it!】"
………
………
In the end, Luo Mo's self-introduction was very simple; he just stood on stage and stated his name and age.
This behavior was completely different from those flashy trainees; you have to know, some trainees' self-introductions were incredibly flamboyant, and some even came with their own beatboxing performances.
He glanced at the pyramid-shaped seats; no one dared to sit in the number 1 spot at the top yet, but 3 people had already taken seats 2 through 9.
He didn't have any thoughts on this; since he had stuck an F on himself for good luck, he wouldn't go sit in the seats above—that would be too much drama.
But he did notice that Meng Yangguang, who had very thick soles on his shoes, was sitting in seat number 6, and the letter he had stuck on himself was an A.
Luo Mo scanned the crowd, then smiled and plopped down next to Tong Shu.
Tong Shu gave a violent start.
When Luo Mo walked toward him, he had been constantly chanting in his heart: "Don't, don't come over, don't..."
Although this youth was shy, his mind was clear.
After their brief contact just now, he sensitively sensed that this "disheveled" Boss seemed to have a bit of a rebellious streak in his bones.
—The good boy in class had met a delinquent.
Luo Mo grinned at him, and Tong Shu immediately returned a very polite smile, practically ready to hand over his living expenses with both hands.
But at this moment, he remembered this Boss's Motto again.
"Do not worry that you have no friends on the road ahead."
"Does that mean he doesn't have any friends right now?"
But he didn't dare to ask more.
I have no mouth. jpg.
Time ticked by second by second, and Luo Mo kept spacing out.
Tong Shu would sneak a glance from time to time at this Boss who was a full 6 years older than him, only to find that he hadn't cared about any of the contestants at all.
His face was written all over with—I'm slacking off, I'm daydreaming, I'm just not paying attention.
The image of a delinquent who doesn't study became even deeper!
And these scenes were also recorded by the cameras, though the shots were just quick sweeps.
The General Director Ning Dan, who was backstage, suddenly spoke up and said, "Film Luo Mo's distracted look for a few more seconds; don't just sweep past it."
"Understood, Sister Ning."
Although they didn't know what kind of Medicine Ning Dan was selling in her Gourd, the people below would just do as they were told.
After all 100 trainees had entered the venue and finished their self-introductions, the camera pulled back to take a panoramic shot of the pyramid seats.
Of course, after the camera zoomed in, it mainly gave close-ups of the 9 people in seats 1 through 9.
Immediately following that, the mentors entered the venue.
The first to enter were definitely the two girl group members who were the youngest and had the least Seniority.
Out of the corner of his eye, Tong Shu saw that after the dance mentors Jiang Ningxi and Shen Yinuo entered, a strange smile appeared on the face of Luo Mo, who had been spacing out the whole time.
It had the strong vibe of a school bully watching two class beauties walk into the classroom!
It must be said, whether it was Jiang Ningxi or Shen Yinuo, both were women of extreme charm.
Those two pairs of long, white legs weren't just walking on the stage; they were stepping right on everyone's heartstrings!
——It itches!
The trainees in the audience began to stand up, then cheered and applauded.
Following them into the venue were Music Mentor Wei Ran and rap mentor Li Ge.
There were a large number of fans for the two of them at the scene, though it was hard to tell who was genuine and who was not.
Finally, the queen-level Superstar Xu Chujing entered alone, and the entire hall simply exploded!
She was too beautiful, and her aura was too strong.
It was the first time the trainees had seen her in person, and at this moment, they suddenly understood why many of Xu Chujing's male fans often had one phrase on their lips.
——"Who in this world can refuse a big sister?"
At the top of the food chain is a big sister!
After the five mentors took their seats at the front, the recording of the initial stage for Creating Idols officially began, with contestants taking the stage one by one to present their initial stage shows.
At this time, the five mentors each gave a brief opening statement; Jiang Ningxi's voice was very cold, Shen Yinuo's voice was very sweet, and Xu Chujing's voice was very regal.
As for the voices of Wei Ran and Li Ge....... skip.
Xu Chujing held the microphone, looked at the documents placed on the table, and said, "Next, I invite the first trainee to come on stage to perform."
"Tong Shu."
As soon as the name was called, Luo Mo smiled.
Because Tong Shu, who was sitting next to him, trembled all over.
The order of appearance was arranged by the production team without notifying any of the contestants; they wanted this kind of on-the-spot reaction from everyone.
Seeing him so nervous, Luo Mo raised his large hand and slapped him hard on the back.
"Smack——!"
Tong Shu was instantly stunned by the hit, his face full of surprise.
"I got hit!" Tong Shu felt the burning pain on his back: "I got hit!"
"Don't be nervous," Luo Mo smiled casually.
Tong Shu shrank back slightly, his mind went blank again, but for some reason, he really wasn't that nervous anymore.
After going on stage, he sang a song with a relatively strong student vibe.
The evaluation Luo Mo gave in his heart was almost identical to the one given by Music Mentor Wei Ran.
"Your vocal condition is very good; there isn't much strong technique in your singing style, but it makes people feel particularly comfortable listening to it," Wei Ran said.
"Do any other mentors want to request an additional performance?" Wei Ran asked.
He seemed to like Tong Shu quite a bit and even took the initiative to fight for an extra performance for him. If there was an extra performance, it meant he could perform two acts, which meant more screen time.
As it turned out, Wei Ran's good intentions led to a bad result; Tong Shu not only couldn't rap, but his dancing level was even worse than the Atmosphere Group in a bar, twisting and turning like a maggot, completely unable to let go.
In the end, Wei Ran laughed unkindly, even laughing out loud.
"Very cute," was the only evaluation he could make to save face.
In the end, the mentor rating for the blushing Tong Shu was C Class.
After he sat back in his seat, he kept his head down, still caught in the embarrassment of his dance.
As a result, he caught a glimpse of Luo Mo staring at him with a smile, and he instantly stopped feeling embarrassed; fearing another hit, he quickly straightened his back and sat upright, looking straight ahead.
At the same time, he was very puzzled: "How is it that this Luo Mo doesn't get nervous at all?"
Tong Shu felt that this guy sitting next to him was the most relaxed person in the entire venue.
"Is he really just here to slack off?" Tong Shu thought to himself.
Next, contestants went on stage one after another, and the atmosphere gradually became heavy.
The trainees began to realize that the mentors' judging criteria were higher than they had imagined.
Up to now, let alone contestants entering A Class, there had only been 3 for B Class!
Most people's final grades were lower than their initial self-evaluations.
——A slap in the face!
As the National Producer Representative, Xu Chujing hadn't shown a smile; expressionless, she held the microphone and continued: "Next trainee, please......."
Strangely, before reading the name, Xu Chujing paused for a full few seconds.
"Luo Mo," she read the name.
Xu Chujing thought of that dream again, and thought of that large hand petting the Cat.
No one knew that, while she remained expressionless, her rounded thigh under the table trembled slightly.
Luo Mo went on stage with a relaxed expression.
Rap mentor Li Ge, wearing a large gold chain, felt a strange sense of favor toward Luo Mo because he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and asked: "What kind of act will you be bringing?"
"Singing and playing," Luo Mo said.
Upon hearing this, Music Mentor Wei Ran looked at him curiously, then nodded and looked down at the stage information for Luo Mo in his hand.
Not long after, he couldn't help but read it out loud while looking at the information, and the eyes of the entire venue followed his voice to focus once again on the young man in the white short-sleeved shirt on the stage.
Because below the song title, three lines were written.
"Lyricist: Luo Mo."
"Composer: Luo Mo."
"Singer: Luo Mo."
Changed the contract status~
